Blend Information
98% Shiraz, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The nose is spicy, with aromas of black pepper, plum, cherry and cedar wood. There is also a light perfume of violets and plum on the nose. The palate is well balanced and structured, with juicy fresh tannins and a dry finish. Distinct notes of red fruit and spice on the palate, all add to this complex and enjoyable wine.
In The Vineyard
The grapes are sourced from the best organic vineyards across the Western Cape, a quarter of it coming directly from the estate.
In The Cellar
The grapes were sorted, destemmed and wild, spontaneous fermentation took place in a combination of concrete tanks and open top stainless steel fermenters using the submerged cap fermentation technique. 25% of the wine spent eight months in older oak barrels after which the assemblage is made up and bottled. The limited oak contact makes this red wine smooth and approachable right now.
